Abstract: A traffic signal analysis system for an autonomous vehicle (AV) can receive image data from one or more cameras, the image data including an upcoming traffic signaling system located at an intersection. The system can determine an action for the AV through the intersection and access a matching signal map specific to the upcoming traffic signaling system. Using the matching signal map, the system can generate a signal template for the upcoming traffic signaling system and determine a first subset and a second subset of the plurality of traffic signal faces that apply to the action. The system can dynamically analyze the first subset and the second subset to determine a state of the upcoming traffic signaling system for the action, and generate an output for the AV indicating the state of the upcoming traffic signaling system for the action.

Abstract: A refrigerated display case 1 of the open front type has a roller mounted night cover 51 formed of flexible material which, in a deployed position, is arranged to close the front opening of the display case. The flexible material of the night cover has a plurality of apertures 54 arranged in a first section 51 that are disposed in an upper 30%-40% of the front opening. The apertures have a constant diameter D, chosen to be a fixed dimension in the range 9 mm-11 mm, that are arranged in a vertical and a horizontal grid. The spacing between the aperture centres in the vertical direction y of the grid is 3D and the spacing between aperture centres in the horizontal direction x of the grid is in the range 2D to 4D, preferably 3D. The specific dimensions of the first section and of the apertures and their grid arrangement is arranged to eliminate hotspots and improve the efficiency of the refrigeration system.

Abstract: A traffic signal analysis system can receive image data from one or more cameras of an autonomous vehicle, where the image data includes a traffic signaling system located at an intersection. The traffic signal analysis system can determine a pass-through action for the autonomous vehicle through the intersection, and access a matching signal map that includes characteristic information indicating properties of the traffic signaling system. Based on the characteristic information and the image data, the traffic signal analysis system can identify a state of the traffic signaling system for the pass-through action, and generate an output for the autonomous vehicle indicating the state of the traffic signaling system for the pass-through action.

Abstract: A method and apparatus provide for remote control, monitoring and/or servicing of heat-treatment equipment via wireless communications networks. Specifically, the method and apparatus can be used in pre and post-weld heat-treatment applications for steel pipes in a variety of industries, including, but not limited to, power plants, chemical and petrochemical plants and refineries. Importantly, the embodiment generates and manages all the documentation necessary to input and verify the specified heat-treatment process. It will produce and deliver to the customer the reports and certificates required by the applicable quality control standards, requirements and regulatory authorities.

Abstract: Wind energy systems comprise a wind accelerator having a support assembly and an outer structure surrounding the support assembly. The wind accelerator has a front region and a rear region. The rear region is substantially wider than the front region, and the outer structure tapers from the rear region to the front region. One or more turbines are mounted on the support assembly at or near the rear region of the wind accelerator or at or near the widest point of the wind accelerator.

Abstract: Methods and compositions for modulating the activities of connexins are provided, including, for example, for use in post-surgical, trauma, or tissue engineering applications. These compounds and methods can be used therapeutically, for example, to reduce the severity of adverse effects associated diseases and disorders where localized disruption in direct cell-cell communication is desirable.
